Funds to fight youth substance abuse are coming to Cape Cod, U.S. Sen. John Kerry and U.S. Rep. Bill Keating announced this week.

The Falmouth Substance Abuse Commission will receive $125,000 through the Drug Free Communities Support Group.

“Temptations come at kids from every angle,” Kerry noted in a press statement, “with the most dangerous drugs sometimes filling prescription bottles in the family’s bathroom cabinet. Funding by the Drug Free Communities program combines substance abuse education with stepped-up enforcement efforts to provide Massachusetts kids a roadmap for a clean and healthy future.”

Keating praised “the commitment of many local leaders in communities throughout the state who have helped those struggling with substance abuse. The funds provided by this grant are meaningless without the selfless and tireless dedication of these leaders.”
